Stocks-Ihe stock market today, ex-
cept for short time late in the alter
noon, exhibited much lees animation
than yesterday, and the transactions
were marked by considerable irregu-
larity, especially early. in the day.
London was doing almost nothing
here, but the market on the other
side was higher ss rule. Ustil just
previous to the close the general list
was quiet and fluctuations confined
within narrow limits. The coal
stocks were again the leaders Of the
market, sho wing a conspicuously
strong tone throughout. The deal
ings in Reading were OF a much
smaller scale than during the past
few days until the last honr, when the
announcement OF the calling OF the
first two installments of the assess
ment precipitated a food Of the stock
upon the market, and with very heavy
trans actions it dropped II. Early in
the day New Ergan d was weak upon
the announcement that the company
would soon issue additional preferred
stock, though this story also met with
prompt denial. Hooking Valley broke
per cent. upon rumors of a receiver
ship, the room traders being very
prominent in hammering the stock
down. Kingston and Pembroke, Fort
Worth and Denver a1d Manhattan
were the noted strong stocks, though
Fort Worth is strong upon the manip-
ulation OF the insiders and the squeez.
ing of the short interest. There was a
revival OF the story OF dividend upon
Pacific NAL. The opening was steady,
the changes from last evenings final
figures being for insignificant frac-
tiOns only. The market was mo 3era E.
ly active and generally steady,
but Pc fic Mail was strong and New
England weak in the early dealings,
though the first named soon broke
badly. The movements in the re-
mainder were irregular but unim-
portant, and after IL O'Clock became
generally in an upward direction I'M
til after l o'clock, when the list weak
ened, in sympathy with Hooking Val
ley. In the last half hour the break
in Reading caused slight decline all
around, many stocks closing at the
lowest prices OF the day, the market
being he .vy. Sales, 1857 ,066 shares
The Atlantic and Pacific incomes were
again the feature of the railroad bond
market, furnishing $859,000 to the
full days total of $2,l26,000. The
movements in prices were unim.
'portant.
